Property code: OC-WILLHO

A spacious property on the outskirts of this traditional market town and just 7.5 miles inland from the Suffolk Heritage Coast. Featuring a large garden, comfortable living spaces and room for up to four dogs, this two-storey property is perfect for large groups keen to explore the attractions within the Suffolk Coast & Heaths AONB.

The property is set well back from one of the main B roads into Halesworth and enjoys an inviting ambience that puts weary travellers at ease. Look forward to enveloping yourselves in the sitting room’s comfortable sofas with plenty of room for hounds around your feet during film nights and games. Catch up with others over a drink in the conservatory or take time for yourself in the study with a good book or podcast. The kitchen has enough room for creative cooks and expectant diners, but for more space later in the evening, slip off into the dining room next door. The utility room nearby adds yet another homely touch and is a God-send for those who struggle to keep themselves clean. Each of the bedrooms on the first floor - two doubles, an en-suite king-size and a twin overlooking the garden - offer ample storage space. While you relax on the patio, let the children off the lead to play dog-friendly games in the vast partially enclosed garden leading to fields beyond.

Grab a bite, a pint or just wander around Halesworth’s streets and market square (1 mile). Time spent absorbing the local culture and cuisine in Southwold or Walberswick (9 miles) is always time well spent, with dogs able to run around the latter’s beach all year round. To reconnect with nature and enjoy a different perspective of the coast, head to the reserve at Minsmere (11 miles).

  • 4 bedrooms - 1 king-size, 2 doubles, 1 twin
  • 2 bathrooms - 1 bathroom with a bath and separate shower cubicle and WC, 1 en-suite shower room with WC, 1 separate WC
  • Oven with a separate grill, convection hob, fridge, freezer and dishwasher
  • Utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer
  • Open fire
  • Smart TV, sound system
  • Patio area with wooden furniture to seat 8 people, lawned area with a loveseat, summerhouse, greenhouse and two sheds; the garden leads to a field with willow trees, please note the garden is not fully secure

Loved the house and all it's comforts. It was really comfortable, warm and spacious. Plenty of room for us all - a party of 8 and 4 dogs. The garden was amazing - could not believe the size. The dogs were running to and fro' - no walks needed! Visited Aldeburgh, Walberswick and Southwold all with dog friendly beeches. The town of Halesworth is sRead moremall with some quant shops and art exhibition at the church, a bonus with prices very reasonable. Hide

Willow House was perfect for our family get together. There is plenty of space, all the bedrooms are large, the kitchen and table provide a good focal point for family meals, and the other rooms give enough space to find a quiet corner. It is well equipped and the house folder contains info on everything we needed. The garden is very big and was grRead moreeat for our three dogs under supervision - it is not fully secure for some over-inquisitive dogs! The location is very good. I don't drive. I could walk into Halesworth along the road or the disused railway footpath that runs along the back of the house in about 15 - 20 minutes. Also easily walkable to and from the station. Nearer is an excellent well stocked farm shop. I would recommend for big groups and may return myself. Hide

The property is a great size with plenty of space in the house and a huge garden. Everything in the house was of good quality and well maintained. It was cleaned to a high standard. It is near enough to town to be convenient, and just far enough out to be quiet and peaceful. A great base to explore the area. We had a lovely break. Thanks

Willow House was really welcoming, a stunningly large garden with outdoor eating furniture. An added benefit of our August stay were the delicious blackberries and apples in the garden. All the rooms are a generous size and the kitchen is well equipped which was great for us as we cooked together a lot. It's a fantastic location for visiting, SouthRead morewold and other popular Suffolk coastal towns. Halesworth itself is delightful and the take away curry we ordered from Raj Puth was impressive indian cuisine indeed. Hide

Nice house, well furnished (tired in places) and convenient location for travelling around. Brilliant garden for the dogs to charge around. The house was however somewhat personal and the water pressure in both bathrooms was weak. An old greenhouse, and a pile of metal and wood in the garden should really be removed for safety purposes: there is aRead more warning. Path behind house leads to a little woodland area, and then onto town, but runs past actively used fields for cows, so not really convenient to allow dogs off their leads. Another fair dog walk across the road (opposite the garden centre) leading to The Orchard was good, but you have to cut across a quite road within a housing area so again a limitation for dogs off leads, That said, Dunwich Forest wasn't far away, but we did see an adder whilst there so be careful. Overall, would we recommend and consider going again - yes. Note: coming from Halesworth, the house is on the right with a little lay by in front... the house name is covered up... if you get to the garage, turnaround! Hide

A very homely feel to this property even though it is very big! Well placed to visit a variety of different places in Suffolk, and for the town of Halesworth. There is also a good dog walk behind the house which can be accessed from a nearby lane.
